progressive nitrous

whats a good inexpensive controller? Im looking at the Schnitz 2 dial... I really dont want to pulse the solenoids a lot, but i dont really see many options. thinking of trying a 100 shot(maybe more? 120?) in my wet kit. I have a Schnitz rpm window switch set to activate nitrous in second gear. if i wait till second i shouldnt need very much ramp time right? would I even need the controller? I know i should start spraying in first to get the most out of it, but I dont want to pulse the solenoids much....I have a dry shot i could use in first gear. is there a way to turn that off in second when the wet kit turns on ? a couple relays?
thx

My advice is to keep it as simple as possible.

I would also consider what advantages ramping the nitrous might have for engine longevity. How quickly do you want your cylinder pressures and temps to rise?

I'm not a nitrous expert, obviously...but sometimes less is more. I would use a smaller progressive shot and maximize it's potential. You have an 8 second capable bike without the spray.

I like trying to complicate stuff lol
you make a good point about the cylinder temp/pressure. no wonder the turbo guys get away with so much power....
I know i change my mind more than anyone, but maybe it would be best to run the progressive wet shot from first gear. dad wouldnt object to the dry kit going on his bar bike. we could hit that in first with the bars easy....
whats a good starting point for the 2 dial on a 100 shot? 20% with a 1.5 sec ramp??

I had mine hooked on a WOT switch. It was spraying by the 60' mark.
